    To deliver keys is no problem, but RTM has to be voted, and nobody knows exactly how a voting will end.....
    M$ loses money each day, because they were too stupid to stay up to date, so they surely push the voting to be fast, maybe some payments to the OEMs will accelerate it. :D

    Anyway there are schedules to have it RTM'ed and download-able at last week of August from official partners.

    Can be right also. Somebody told me they expect it to be available at beginning of 35th week. Dunno if he's meant Technet or 'partners'....

    I also have windows 8 KMS/MAK keys on my work's VLSC site, I downloaded the enterprise preview cause Canouna thought the keys people were seeing were for enterprise 8400, but then I installed and was never asked for a key. I also can't activate it as its saying DNS name does not exist (internet is fully working).

    Enterprise will use a generic KMS client key by default so it won't prompt for a key. With that key it will attempt to activate with a KMS host on the local network, not on the Internet. It will find that host through DNS on a network that's properly configured for automatic KMS activation, which doesn't seem to be the case on the network you were running it on.

    That makes a lot of sense I don't know if we use a KMS server for anything. I can try slmgr -ipk to change out the key and see how it reacts?

    You activated Office 15 on W7 with MultiKMS. Office 15 won't work on localhost, it will say "DNS Name doesn't exist". I activated Office 15 on W7 using a VM with the Keygen running in it.

    I see. I have MultiKMS running on a different machine anyway, so I didn't notice that. In fact I didn't even bother trying to activate Office at all after installation, and I was surprised to see it activated on its own with MultiKMS (I have DNS set up for automatic KMS discovery).
